Sometimes the past is prologue, or so it is said. After watching today’s House impeachment hearings I was reminded most of “Tom Traubert’s Blues”, the 1976 Tom Waits song often called “Waltzing Matilda”. I found myself filling in the speaking parts from Trump to Schiff to various witnesses and Republican defenders. Take a listen and see if it generates a response in your soul, your dark side of this American experience.
